Old Fulton Street

Old Fulton Street is a historic street in the Brooklyn Heights and DUMBO sections of Brooklyn, New York City. Part of the greater Fulton Street, Old Fulton Street is a part of the original street, which originated as a Native American path to the Hempstead Plains. It later became the Ferry Road through the Jamaica Pass, and, after Robert Fulton's ferry monopoly, it became "Fulton Street", joined with Manhattan's "Fulton Street" by Fulton's steam ferries.
